Chiropractic
Chiropractors first evaluate and diagnose the spine to find any mis-alignments in the spine.Chiropractors first evaluate and diagnose the spine to find any mis-alignments in the spine.
These mis-alignments in the spine are commonly called Sub-luxations, in simpler terms, a shift.These mis-alignments in the spine are commonly called Sub-luxations, in simpler terms, a shift.
We find these areas by using x-rays, other diagnostic equipment, or by palpating the spine using our hands to determine where and how the spine has been mis-aligned.
Chiropractic is a type of medicine based on the scientific fact that our nervous system controls or influences the function of every tissue and cell in your body.
Interference of the nervous system will affect how the nerves communicate to every muscle, tissue and organ in our body.
By removing the interference of the nerve, the body will heal itself.
All body functions are controlled by the nervous system. Sometimes the spinal vertebras will get misaligned which will cause pressure on the nerve which will lead you to feel discomfort/pain and even at times radiating pain to wherever the nerve is traveling.
Once the Doctor finds these areas of misalignments the chiropractor will adjust these areas gently using his/her hands with synergistic technologies, remove the interference of the nerve, which will help reduce the pain or discomfort to the area in which the nerve is affecting.

Neuropathy
Non-Medication Treatment for Neuropathy and Chronic Nerve Discomfort is Available
Peripheral neuropathy is a condition where nerves are damaged causing weakness, burning pain, numbness, tingling, and debilitating balance problems. The damage to the nerves can be caused by many different problems in the body. Poor blood flow to the nerves, toxic levels of sugar in the blood (diabetes), chronic infections, pesticide exposure and genetic variants are a few of the causes of this debilitating condition. The cause is different for every patient and it must be discovered to help the nerves heal!Peripheral neuropathy is a condition where nerves are damaged causing weakness, burning pain, numbness, tingling, and debilitating balance problems.

What is Peripheral Neuropathy?
Generally, symptoms of peripheral neuropathy in an effected area include:
- Numbness/Tingling
- Burning Pain
- Unusual and/or loss of sensations
- Muscle weakness
- Deep Stabbing Pain
- Balance Problems
Another common cause of nerve damage is auto-immunity.Auto-immune diseases are diseases where the immune system mistakenly starts to attack the body. Thats right! Many times the immune system is actually killing the nerves of peripheral neuropathy sufferers. This is why thorough testing is vitally important to helping peripheral neuropathy.

Can peripheral nerves heal?
Yes! It is well established in the scientific literature that peripheral nerves can and do heal. The key issue is that not only do we need to get the nerves healing but we have to stop whatever is causing the nerve damage in the first place. When the underlying cause of the neuropathy is discovered and proper support for the nerves are provided it optimizes the ability for the nerves to heal!
In order to effectively heal nerve damage, four factors must be determined:
- What is the underlying cause of the nerve damage?
- How severe is the nerve damage?
- What types of nerve fibers are damaged?
You have sensory nerves (both small fiber nerves and large diameter nerves) and motor nerves (that control movement of your muscles) NOTE: If there is muscle weakness from neuropathy for greater than two years the damage to the muscles will probably be permanent!
How much treatment will the nerves require to heal?This will be dependent on the degree of nerve damage and what types of fibers are damaged.
The treatment we provide has four main goals
- Optimize the environment within the body for nerve healing.
- Increase blood flow to the nerves.
- Stimulate the nerves that are damaged (small fiber, large diameter, or motor nerves) to reduce pain and improve balance.
- Decrease brain-based pain.
We provide a Safe and Effective, New Choice for Neuropathy Sufferers.
Our clinic offers a NEW, Non-Invasive and Non-Surgical therapy protocol that combines the best of cutting edge medical treatments to help resolve your neuropathy suffering. We want to make sure that you have the confidence that you need, so weve designed an extensive diagnostic evaluation process to help us find out if youre a candidate for our program.
This extensive evaluation will give you ALL the information that you need to know before starting treatment so you can be assured if you will have success with your neuropathy pain program.

THERE ARE 4 VITAL COMPONENTS TO OUR NEUROPATHY PROTOCOL
Electromagnetic Infrared Therapy
One of the treatment technologies we use to increase blood flow and repair the nerve is our new Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT). Thee light therapy signals Vasoendothelial Growth (VEGF), which signals the production of angiogenesis. Angiogenesis is the creation of the new blood vessels, which is needed to repair nerve damage. These blood vessels grow back around the peripheral nerves and provide them with the proper nutrients to heal and repair. This technology has 21 peer-reviewed studies with a 97% success rate with peripheral neuropathy.
Electrostimulation
We use state of the art digital electro therapeutic stimulation to assist in the growth of the nerves called Nerve Re-Education. This is used by the Cancer Centers of America in order to help those going through Chemotherapy rebuild the nerves. Nerve Re-Education can even be done at home, so therapy can be done daily! The results can be immediate in both pain relief and restoration of normal sensation.
Advanced Nutrition Therapy
Proper nutrition in support of our other VITAL COMPONENTS is vital for optimal tissue and nerve repair. Our Advanced Nutritional Therapies have been to designed to accelerate the healing process by affecting the complex processes of inflammation, blood flow, and bioavailable nitric oxide.
In-Clinic Visits & Online Education
In synergy with your home infrared electromagnetic & electrostimulation therapy you will visit the office 1x per week for our in-clinic protocol. Each vital component is equally important for patient results.
Nerve cells need two things to heal
- Fuel
- Activation
Nerve cells need two things to healFuelActivationThis makes the combination of high-powered lower level light therapy & nutrition (FUEL) and Nerve ReEducation (ACTIVATION) the perfect 1-2 punch for nerve regeneration!The amount of treatment needed to allow the nerves to recover varies from person to person and can only be determined after a detailed neurological and vascular evaluation.
Will It Work For You?
We are offering our neuropathy reversal seminar for FREE so people can learn to see if you are a candidate. At the neuropathy seminar we will discuss symptoms, common medical history, treatment options, and whether a one on one visit with the doctor is needed. Submit your form below to reach a BHN doctor!
Plantar Fasciitis
Do you suffer from unexplained foot pain or heel pain when putting your weight on your feet?
The inflammatory process known as Plantar Fasciitis is one of the most common causes of foot and heel pain. If you are a person who does a lot of standing and/or activity on your feet, you could be suffering from Plantar Fasciitis.
Different Symptoms that may be Experienced with Plantar Fasciitis Include:
- Pain or Stiffness in the foot when you put initial steps in the morning
- Pain after standing for long periods of time
- Pain after activity or climbing stairs
- Pain that worsens as the day goes on
- Pain that feels like a deep bruise in your heal
Pain can be experienced anywhere along the bottom of the foot because the Plantar Fascia is a ligament that spans the bottom of the foot from the heel to the toes and supports your arch.
However, the most common location of pain is right at the heel. Most people will describe it as a stabbing pain but because this condition comes on gradually, it can start as just a tight feeling or a dull ache.
How can I find out if I might have Plantar Fasciitis?
Since it is a musculoskeletal condition, Doctor of Chiropractic specialize in not only diagnosing these types of conditions, but also treating them. A diagnosis of Plantar Fasciitis can usually be made from reviewing your medical history and performing a clinical examination.
X-rays may be taken as well and sometimes doctors will see an incidental finding called a heel spur. Heel spurs form when the plantar fascia is chronically tight and extra bone is laid down in response.
What Can I do to Treat Plantar Fasciitis?
We use many therapies to help Plantar Fasciitis
- Chiropractic
- Infrared Therapy
- Stretching
- Cold Laser
- Tissue & Nerve Stimulation
- Lifestyle Guidance
- Many more options
Once you meet with Blueprint Healthcare Network doctor, he or she will determine your root cause and individualized approach to your condition.

Body Contouring
Non-Surgical Body Contouring is now available by our Top Doctors in your city
Low Level Light Body Contouring is rapidly becoming one of the most sought after procedures, preferred by both men and women. Men, as well as women, have problematic areas of excess fat accumulation. While men have excessive fat accumulation in areas such as love handles, abdomen and chest, women tend to have trouble with the thighs, arms, hips, buttocks, and abdomen. All those who have excess skin or fat in any of these areas can benefit from this form of body contouring.
Lose 2-4 Inches in 25 MINUTES Or Your Money Back (And Keep Losing)
The Technology
Clinical studies have proven that exposure to 635nm light causes a stimulation of the subcutaneous fat cells, resulting in the release of triglycerides into the interstitial region of the body. This requires the proper balance within a persons system to efficiently process the excess fatty acids.
Results for the patient are the utmost priority and providing every patient with a complete set of tools to reach their individual goal is a necessity. The patient should drink plenty of water to flush their lymphatic system, and of course their diet is important, while some form of exercise is beneficial, but neither has to be restricting or stressful to achieve the desired effect.
All light in the mid-600nm wavelength, whether it is laser or LED, will cause the reaction of the fat cells and the two key factors are the amount of light energy delivered and the wavelength.
The Contour Light produces up to 100 times more light energy than competing systems in this market, at the same 635nm wavelength.
Got Questions?
What is LLT?
LLLT stands for Low Level Light Therapy. This is different than a medical or aesthetic laser treatment because the energy emitted by a LLLT device is much lower than a medical or aesthetic laser system. The effects on the patients skin with a LLLT device are gradual, as compared with a medical or aesthetic laser that delivers an immediate response. LLLT devices are much safer to operate as compared to medical or aesthetic laser systems.
What does a Contour Light treatment feel like?
The patient will lie on a treatment bed and the pads are placed over the area to be treated. The system will be turned on and the patient will feel a slight warming sensation, but no pain or discomfort. Most patients can read or use their phone/portable device, while some will even take a short nap.
How long will the results last?
Results will vary from patient to patient, primarily due to the commitment by the patient to their goals. If a patient maintains a healthy lifestyle of a diet and exercise program that promotes weight control, their results can be long term.
Can anyone be treated?
A Contour Light treatment is safe and effective for anyone who does not have a medical condition that reduces their ability to eliminate waste via the liver and kidneys. Patients are recommended to consult their physician before starting any type of diet or exercise program.
Do patients need to follow a strict diet and exercise regimen?The protocol associated with the Contour Light system involves simple to follow directions, but does not require a strict diet or strenuous exercise. As with any type of weight modifying program, diet and exercise will have an effect on the results, specifically if a person does not make an attempt to maintain a healthy lifestyle. A specific supplement, a small amount of exercise and a recommended level of water consumption will help with lymphatic stimulation to optimize results. The Contour Light protocol can help to motivate a person and jumpstart a persons determination to improve their appearance, making it much easier to attain their goal of a sleeker and sexier profile.
What areas of the body can be treated?
The Contour Light can be used on any part of the body; hips, waist, thighs, back, upper arms and neck.
Is the Contour Light device safe?
Yes. The light emitted by the Contour Light does not generate excessive heat and will not cause a burn. The light is very bright and should not be looked at directly for an extended period of time, but is much safer than a laser device that can damage eyes with even a slight glance into the beam.
What can a person do to optimize their results?
To achieve optimal results with the Contour Light treatments, the patient should follow the simple steps outlined in our protocol. This protocol involves a moderate diet, minimal exercise, reasonable water consumption and daily supplements. Any individual who is committed to improving their appearance will have no problem following these guidelines.

While reading this you will be mostly excited but maybe a little frustrated.
Frustrated that you did not have this information before now, but very excited because the solution is finally here.What weve realized, after asking hundreds of patients what they think the root cause of their weight gain may be, we have found out that they have no idea. Most of the time we hear things like, they are eating too much and moving too little. Don't we all wish it was that simple!
The truth is, there are 8 root causes of weight gain.
But before we pull back the curtain on how to correct these causes lets take a brief look of what he are up against.So in order to lose weight and gain health you must address the root cause of your weight gain and have the correct accountability and support. Let us show you how blueprint to weight loss provides both.
When it comes down to it, we have to get down to the basics and address the root causes that we are about to discuss to achieve the permanent weight loss desired. Over the course of our program we will be teaching your mind and body how to burn fat instead of sugar, eliminate the cravings and lower stress while increasing energy.
So lets expose the 8 root causes of your weight gain so we can show you exactly what to do about them so your weight loss efforts and goals become permanent.While reading this you will be mostly excited but maybe a little frustrated.Frustrated that you did not have this information before now, but very excited because the solution is finally here.What weve realized, after asking hundreds of patients what they think the root cause of their weight gain may be, we have found out that they have no idea. Most of the time we hear things like, they are eating too much and moving too little. Don't we all wish it was that simple!
With our three phases of care approach we will address Candida, Toxicity, Thyroid, Hunger Hormones, Sleep, Stress, Brain-Based Food Cravings, and Food Management.
These are the 8 culprits of weight gain that are never addressed in a synergistic way to not just lose weight but to keep it off.
Candida is a yeast and a fungus found in the gut lining of the body. A little is okay, but when there is an overgrowth it starts to cause some serious health issues that keeps those extra pounds on that seem to never be able to come off.
Half the U.S. population suffer from JFH Syndrome. Thats the Just Feel Horrible Syndrome. Its not really a syndrome, but sometimes its annoying little symptoms such as achy joints or muscles, brain fog, fatigue, headaches, and unexplained weight gain that keeps you feeling down and out. Toxicity could be the cause of most of these ailments and detoxification could be the solution, especially for weight gain.
The thyroid has a big job. The hormones it secretes help maintain a healthy heart rate, maintain healthy skin, and play a crucial role in your metabolism. When the gland is sluggish, due to candida, as we just discussed, it can rob you of your energy, dry out your skin, and make your joints ache. Those are all undesirable symptoms, but what were specifically talking about here is that it can cause dramatic weight gain.
When we mentioned hormones in this program we are not talking about progesterone, testosterone and estrogen. Although they do play a role in weight gain, but ghrelin, leptin, adiponectin, insulin and cortisol are hormones that truly are the missing link when it comes to achieving permanent weight loss. These hormones give us feedback on things like the feeling of fullness, appetite, energy balance, and fat storage.
Research suggests an association between sleep restriction and negative changes in metabolism. In adults, sleeping 4 hours a night, compared to 8-10 hours a night, appears to increase hunger and appetite particularly for calorie-dense foods high in carbohydrates.
Experts have agreed that stress management is a critical part of weight loss regimens, particularly in those who have a busy life with jobs, families and other responsibilities. Another overlooked aspect of stress and weight loss is not just the emotional stress, its the oxidative stress as well. As fat storage expands when the body gets inflamed so we of course address the stress inflammation response in our program.
We have been raised to think that food cravings come from a simple desire to eat that specific food. But most of the time, its a signal from your body that there is a deficiency of some sort, a nutritional need or an imbalance in your body and/or brain chemistry.
You will see just how easy it can be to get your clean eating on track. Whether you want to lose a few pounds or get back to your ideal weight, eating proper portions is as important as eating the right foods.
We understand this seems like a lot of things to address but it really is a simple solution when you utilize our blueprint to weight loss nutrition kit which includes the proper supplementation to address each of these 8 root causes and our handbook and active workbook which is included as well.
We will also be here to support you through your journey of finally addressing the root causes of weight gain by giving you a lifetime program to be sure that the weight stays off and all the additional online assistance that you need which is all doctor supervised.
Forget the addictive weight loss medications, risky surgeries, and fad diets.

Acousana vs. Other Treatment Methods
FAQs
Does the treatment hurt?Acousana therapy is also a diagnostic tool because the only tissue that responds to the acoustic waves is damaged or inflamed tissue. So there will be pain for the patient when we are in the right spot. The pain is tolerable and will go away as the treatment progresses. This is an indication that the treatment is working and the healing process has begun. Most people describe it as a pain that hurts so good and is followed by immediate relief.
Who will perform the treatment?
Acousana therapy is performed by experienced technicians who have received hands on training in order to provide successful patient outcomes.
How many treatments does it take?
This depends on the nature of the condition being treated. The typical treatment protocol is 3-6 treatments. Conditions such as severe arthritis or neuropathy may require additional or ongoing periodic care to control pain.
How long before results are felt?
Most patients will experience immediate pain relief following the first treatment. However, to ensure long term results and healing, a full treatment protocol of 3-6 treatments is recommended (*results may vary).
Are there any negative side effects?
There are no known negative side effects of Acousana therapy and you can return to your daily activities immediately after the treatment however you will want to avoid overusing the injured area until completing all therapy sessions.
Is the technology FDA cleared?Acousana therapy uses technology that is FDA cleared for pain, increasing blood flow, circulation, and activating connective tissue.
Can it be used in conjunction with other forms of treatment?
Yes, Acousana therapy is sometimes even more effective when combined with other forms of therapy, including physical therapy, chiropractic, massage, soft tissue mobilization, electrotherapy, assisted stretching, PRP, stem cell and exosome injections, and following surgery.
SCIATICA
Sciatica Q & A
What is sciatica?
Many people mistake sciatica for a disorder when its actually a symptom of sciatic nerve compression and irritation. The sciatic nerve runs from both sides of the lower spine to the buttocks and travels down the backs of your thighs to your feet. Its the largest nerve in the body, and it connects your leg and foot muscles to your spinal cord. Pain and symptoms of sciatic nerve compression and dysfunction are referred to as sciatica.What are the symptoms of sciatic nerve problems?
More commonly occurring in one leg, but also possible on both sides, sciatic pain is sometimes stabbing, burning, or electric-like. It can come and go or remain constant throughout the day. Its often better with walking or lying down and worsens when you stand still or sit. The pain typically starts in the lower back region and travels down the affected side of the buttock and into the leg and foot.Other symptoms of sciatic nerve compression may include:- Pressure in the lower back area
- Numbness in the buttock or affected leg
- Tingling or prickling sensation down the leg
- Weakness or giving-way sensation in the affected leg or foot
What causes sciatic nerve compression?
Issues known to cause sciatic nerve pain include misalignment (subluxation) of lumbar vertebrae, herniated or bulging discs, pregnancy, and childbirth. Frequent constipation and incorrect sitting posture can also lead to sciatic nerve compression or irritation.Another common cause of sciatic nerve pain is piriformis syndrome. Its named after the piriformis muscle thats located near your lower spine. This large muscle connects to the thighbone and assists in hip rotation. The sciatic nerve travels beneath the piriformis muscle.Injury during a fall or having a condition such as hip arthritis can cause cramping and spasm in the piriformis muscle. This can pinch the sciatic nerve and create inflammation and pain.What is the treatment for sciatica?
Dr. Young first determines the cause of your pain through physical examination, X-rays, and other diagnostic studies.He may recommend several different treatments to relieve your pain and address the underlying cause of your symptoms, including:- Ice/cold therapies to reduce inflammation
- Electrical nerve stimulation to control pain and decrease muscle spasm
- Ultrasound therapy to increase circulation to the region and reduce swelling, cramping, and pain
- Spinal adjustments to restore alignment of vertebral bodies, increase range of motion, and reduce nerve irritation
AUTO ACCIDENT
Even car accidents that take place at low speeds can cause muscle, joint, and tendon injuries which are best treated by a chiropractor. Dr. Chad Young and his team of dedicated health care professionals at Young Health USA in Mayfield, Kentucky, are specifically trained to diagnose and treat injuries sustained during an auto accident. If you live in Mayfield or any of the nearby communities, call the office today, or make your appointment using their convenient online scheduling service.
Auto Accident Q & A
This asymmetric muscular response to injury prevents normal range of motion of the spine, and misalignments may occur throughout the vertebral column. Spinal misalignment impairs your mobility and can eventually create chronic pain issues associated with disc and other vertebral abnormalities, including nerve irritation.Rather than just masking your symptoms with pain medications, Dr. Young uses a holistic and integrative approach to health care that provides real healing for your injuries, as it restores your spine to normal alignment and function.
What chiropractic treatment can I expect after an auto accident?
The first step in treatment involves a thorough examination that includes diagnostic X-rays to help Dr. Young determine the extent of your injuries and evaluate the alignment of your spine.Chiropractic care otherwise focuses on many aspects of the injuries that are common to auto accidents and may include:
- Various forms of spinal adjustment to realign your spine
- Massage therapy to ease tension and soreness in your muscles
- Electrical stimulation to reduce pain, improve your circulation, and repair tissues
There are several techniques or methods used for spinal adjustments. Dr. Young chooses the appropriate technique for your circumstance. He may start with one method and move on to another as your injuries heal and your spine falls into better alignment.
Spinal adjustment techniques include:
- Flexion-distraction that uses gentle, non-thrusting spinal manipulation
- Instrument-assisted adjustment using a hand-held instrument to apply nonthrusting, gentle force to the spine
- Specific spinal manipulation using gentle thrusting methods to restore normal alignment and stretch the soft tissue

Sports injuries can cause a lot of damage that's not visible. If you've recently been injured playing a contact sport such as football or basketball, it may be a good idea to visit your chiropractor. Even if you feel like there are no lasting problems, issues such as headache, vertigo, and neck pain can wait days to surface. And once they arrive, they can cause quite a bit of pain. Get out ahead of the spinal and deep tissue injuries by being proactive in scheduling an appointment with Dr. Chad Young.
Common Complications of Sports Injuries
Sports injuries often have common complications, including:- Sprains and strains
- Rotator cuff damage
- Joint dislocation
- Swollen muscles
- Headache
- Neck pain
- Vertigo
Chiropractic Treatment for Sports Injuries
For symptoms such as headaches and neck pain that won't go away, Dr.Young may perform an initial evaluation that often includes diagnostic testing. Treatment may consist of spinal manipulation or adjustment. This helps to improve spinal function and relieve pressure where pressure shouldn't be. One visit at Young Health USA may be all that's needed to alleviate neck pain and headache caused by sports injuries. In some instances, repeat visits may be required. Some types of vertigo may benefit from chiropractic care. Vertigo that's caused by injury to the neck, called cervicogenic vertigo, may send false messages to the brain, making you experience "spinning room" symptoms. Your chiropractor can also relieve vertigo caused by inner ear issues. Techniques that involve manipulating and positioning the neck have shown great promise in alleviating these conditions.Schedule Your Appointment Today

MUSCLE REHAB
Bringing your body into balance through chiropractic adjustments and exercise is about more than building strength. It is an approach that yields results at any age, providing that extra energy and vitality that makes a difference in daily life. With a combined approach using myofascial release techniques, electrical stimulation, trigger point work, and gentle stretching, we can help you move better and enhance the results of our chiropractic care.
Getting to the Root of the Problem: How Muscle Issues Arise
When you first visit Young Health USA, our wellness specialist and chiropractor in Mayfield will have several questions beyond "where does it hurt?" We want to know about your lifestyle, your work and leisure activities, any injuries in the past, and any health issues that may put your body off balance and affect your muscle performance.Your muscles could be affected by your work routine, your sports activities, accident injuries, and even the way your body grew when you were a child. Issues in your spine and other skeletal malformations can cause unnecessary muscle strain over time. Muscle injuries can gradually pull your bones and joints out of alignment.Treatments to Restore Balance
A significant benefit of whole-body chiropractic care is the ability to balance your body's structure through adjustments and muscle rehabilitation. This allows us to be more effective in restoring health and function than if muscle and bone issues were addressed separately. For example, we will make sure that your spine is in alignment rather than simply train your muscles to work against misalignment.Our chiropractor uses carefully designed muscle treatment plans to achieve optimal results. In addition to chiropractic care, we use muscle rehabilitation techniques including massage and trigger point treatments. We will also teach you stretches and corrective exercises to perform at home. When your body works together as it should, you will feel better, your energy will be elevated, and you will be able to move better.Chiropractor in Mayfield

Several factors can cause neck pain.

There are many ways to treat neck pain. Often these pain relief measures can be taken at home or a chiropractors office.Stretches and ExerciseWhile it might seem counterproductive, moving your injured neck more might relieve your pain. Careful stretching and appropriate exercises are great ways to loosen and strengthen the muscles in your neck.Applying Heat and IceUsing ice packs and heating pads can reduce the inflammation and pain in your neck. Depending on the cause of the pain and your own preferences, one might work better than the other. However, it is worth trying both options to see what works best for you.MassageStiff muscles can be the cause of your neck pain. In that case, massage is a great solution to try.

SHOULDER PAIN
Chiropractic Care for Shoulder Pain
The shoulder joint is one of the most commonly dislocated joints in the entire body. The shoulder joint is supported by surrounding tendons, muscles, and ligaments that are susceptible to injury. Forward and backward movement in the shoulder is possible because of its versatility in various motions. This continuous movement of arms in any direction can cause too much friction, thus subjecting your shoulder joint to pain. Don't let shoulder pain disrupt your daily life. Our team at Young Health USA in Mayfield is ready to help you live a pain-free life using our professional chiropractic services.Causes of Shoulder Pain
Dislocation of a shoulder happens when the humeral head is disconnected from its socket in the glenoid fossa forcefully. These dislocations can occur in three ways:- Anterior dislocation: This occurs when the humeral head has been moved in front of the joint in a vulnerable position. This injury can happen when hitting a volleyball.
- Posterior dislocation: This occurs when the humeral head has been moved back towards the shoulder brain.
- Inferior dislocation: This occurs below the joint. The humeral head gets stuck between the ribs.
Diagnosing Shoulder Pain
There are a few ways we can pinpoint the cause of your pain. We will perform a physical exam to check for tenderness and swelling. Our team will also assess your range of motion and check your joint stability. Our chiropractor may need an x-ray of your shoulder to determine if you have a fracture. An MRI will give us a clear picture of your soft tissue to determine if this is the source of your pain. Once we have diagnosed the source of your pain, we will create a customized treatment plan to help you heal and get back to living pain-free.Muscle Rehabilitation for Shoulder Pain
Our muscle rehabilitation is an alternative medicine designed to improve muscle strength, speed, endurance, and overall function. This therapy includes a combination of physical exercises and other techniques to control pain and relieve problems like a limited range of motion or muscle weakness from a shoulder injury.

SPINAL DECOMPRESSION
Conditions That Can Be Treated With Spinal Decompression
Spinal decompression works by stretching the spine, improving the circulation of nutrient-rich blood to your spinal disks. Spinal decompression therapy is used to address several spinal conditions. Spinal decompression is excellent for bulging or herniated disks. Spinal decompression will reduce your inflammation, improve your spinal mobility, and enhance your bodys natural healing process.Many people suffer from sciatica, which can be very painful and difficult to treat. Our chiropractor in Mayfield may prescribe spinal decompression therapy to help treat your sciatica.
We also see many patients in our practice who are struggling with posterior facet syndrome. This is a condition in which spinal joints become worn, resulting in pain and reduced mobility. Spinal decompression is an excellent treatment for posterior facet syndrome.
